In a tragedy almost no one (of any power) has any discernment and moral guts.

In a Comedy, al least someone has enough discernment and leverage to save the day. But most of the bungling and laughs come at the expense of the majority of fools….who have little or none…and make the happy ending a “touch and go” or “saved by the skin of our teeth” kind of affair.

Example # 1 Take Russia 2000-2018 Learn and discern what your “Western Partners” are made of. A few did so, just in time, pull out of the deadly tailspin, and up, up and away..

Example # 2 The USA..2001 – 2016 Ending In Doom seemed a foregone conclusion. And still does to most watchers of the play.

But It’s Alright Ma…that Zio-Witch Vickie is gone and We Got Wess in Her Place, at State!

Let’s see what F William Engdahl says to put us in better cheer:

“In testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on 21 August, Wess Mitchell, the successor to Victoria Nuland, gave an extraordinarily honest statement of real US geopolitical strategy towards Russia. It revealed a bit more honesty apparently than the US State Department wanted, because they quickly sanitized their published version on the department website.

Censored!…

In his opening remarks to the Senate committee members Mitchell stated:

“The starting point of the National Security Strategy is the recognition that America has entered a period of big-power competition, and that past US policies have neither sufficiently grasped the scope of this emerging trend nor adequately equipped our nation to succeed in it.

Then he continues with the following extraordinary admission:

“Contrary to the hopeful assumptions of previous administrations, Russia and China are serious competitors that are building up the material and ideological wherewithal to contest US primacy and leadership in the 21st Century. It continues to be among the foremost national security interests of the United States to prevent the domination of the Eurasian landmass by hostile powers. The central aim of the administration’s foreign policy is to prepare our nation to confront this challenge by systematically strengthening the military, economic and political fundaments of American power.”

In the State Department’s later sanitized version, the original text, “It continues to be among the foremost national security interests of the United States to prevent the domination of the Eurasian landmass by hostile powers.” And the sentence, “The central aim of the administration’s foreign policy is to prepare our nation to confront this challenge by systematically strengthening the military, economic and political fundaments of American power,” mysteriously were deleted. Because it was formal testimony presented to the Senate, however, the Senate version remains true to his original text, at least of 7 September, 2018. The State Department has been caught in a huge blunder.”

Oh, dear, no Cupcakes In Kiev…but still Arrogance and Empire and Ego Run Amuck ….the Key Ingredients of a Tragic Imperial Cluster _ _ _ _. The Future of Eurasia Should Not Be Determined by Eurasians is the essence of his remarks to the Foreign Policy Committee,

“… prevent the domination of the Eurasian landmass by hostile powers…” and the significance of the subsequent omission of these honest words was mooted in previous cafe.

Cops call this kind of behavior “furtive”… like hiding the gun, or the body…after everybody’s has already seen it… “stupid” might also be a suitable term…

…………………..

But in another, related matter, the Fourth International has a perceptive view of the tensions arising from the trade-war aspect…

To wit: “…The US is now not only confronted with the economic power of its European rivals but a major new one in the form of China. It is striving to reverse this situation. As Leon Trotsky explained some eighty years ago, the hegemony of the US would assert itself most powerfully not in conditions of boom but above all in a crisis when it would use every means—economic and military—against all rivals to maintain its position…”

(which is what Michell said, no?)

They continue, and point out that “…Leon Trotsky explained that the interdependence of every country in the global economy meant that the program of economic nationalism, of the kind now being practised by the Trump administration, was a reactionary “utopia” insofar as it set itself the task of harmonious national economic development on the basis of private property.

“But it is a menacing reality insofar as it is a question of concentrating all the economic forces of the nation for the preparation of a new war,” he wrote five years before the outbreak of World War II.

This “menacing reality” is now once again expressed in the fact that the trade war measures against China, as well as those against Europe and Japan, have all been invoked on “national security” grounds. Just as the US prepares for war, so too do all the other major powers. This drive does not arise from the heads of the capitalist politicians—their actions are only the translation into politics of the objective logic and irresolvable contradictions of the capitalist system over which they preside.

But there is another more powerful logic at work. The very development of globalised production, which has raised the contradiction of the outmoded nation-state system with its rival great powers to a new peak of intensity, has laid the foundations for a planned world socialist economy. And it has created in the international working class, unified at an unprecedented level, the social force to carry it out.”

That last bit about “foundations” seems pretty weak, but anything is liable to happen as an unintended or intended by-product of global conflict, eh? The increasing pace and violence of WW3 (ongoing) seem pretty solid…

Yeah, Q-tards, not all, can be mired in the Repub vs Dem, right vs left, conservative vs liberal etc “swamp”, but again, not all. I keep daily track of Q as it is a great puzzle piece in the big picture. Saker, RT, MSM, George Webb, Unz, PCR, Lewrockwell, this Cafe, etc etc and most importantly my 71 years of paying attention. My mother said that I “think too much”. Barely surviving combat for the Empire kicked my thinking and “discernment” into high gear. Red Pill.
The “Swamp” is a global thing. Criminals inhabit all flavors of humanity and they ride the wave created by the “moneychangers”. When (and if) “money” represents real “capital” created by profitable production of goods and services and not by “fiat”, we will have a chance at a stabilized humanity operating on basic laws. All the “Vickis” and “Wesses” will have to get a REAL job.
I can dream, can’t I?

*stanza 6 is from the film, “Age of Uprising”. According to a good friend, formerly married to a Bavarian – ( I also have that honour, although in my case, she was German/English cross ) – the “trough and the swill” is in keeping with the character of Northern Europeans. Its adaption here, as in the film, is an expression of sexual attraction. Btw, if anyone has seen a film with Mads Mikkelson where he actually smiles, please let me know…
Regards to all, D.

Herr Mannelig tells the story of a female mountain troll who proposes marriage to a young human man. The troll is trying to convince Sir Mannelig to marry her, but is refused despite offering him many great gifts.

In several posts he appears well travelled and multi-cultural with an eclectic offering of some original poetry and a glimpse of what resonates for him in stories from Scandinavia to Macedonia….lyrical ballads with musical accompaniment….and a personal life with a stop in between in Germany/Bavaria…and a reason his English is quite good.

I’ve never been to Bulgaria….but I will bet I have been through Macedonia at age 6….in a 1956 Chevrolet Station wagon delivered to Athens for the start of our 3 month road trip through Europe.

Why bet? Because I know that the new ’56 Chey wagon was shipped to Athens and the next thing I remember was the mountains of Serbia…and my first snow. Not only does the map say straight through Macedonia would be the route taken…..but Albania or Bulgaria to either west or east, respectively…I doubt that.

And the point all this facilitates?

Very basic: The emotional and mental dynamics of old/known/familiar/comfortable versus foreign/new/strange and exciting….but often also … a bit uncomfortable….is my subject.

Or, the reason travel is so refreshing and powerful at breaking the “same old same old” mold. Or reading a book on a never before considered subject is so liberating. In fact it is built into the etymology of “book” and “freedom” through other languages……….. “libro” and “libertad” in Spanish proves the point and draws us back to Library and Liberty…….to reflect on Frederick Douglas’ point…that a most basic prerequisite for freedom of the modern human being……is literacy. Because unlike animals, we are creatures of IDEAS….and stories (and now movies) both fictional and documentary….. and songs and other art forms are powerful conveyors of ideas and emotions.

HOWEVER in many cases the individual’s tolerance for newness, and unfamiliarity is quickly strained.

The Libertarian (often ironically chained to a certain set of ideas) will find it extremely uncomfortable to read Ramin Mazaheri wax lyrical about the benefits of Persian Islamic Socialism and is dumbfounded by Martin from Soviet East Berlin’s staunch defence of Stalin….and react….”Oh, my God, let me out of here! This is just NOT ME…and I have no intention of allowing it to EVER be a part of me.”

Unless there is a hunger to break the mold. And, for example, consider that something NEW might bring some improvements or embellishments to the old, the familiar, including the old familiar YOU!

Any given thing or idea raised by anyone in a place such as this may be rich with promise and truth or as daft and contradictory as the nuttiest thing to ever spring into someone’s chaotic brain…but I will make this one simple point:

The most common and most superficial objection to both the best and the worst ideas …is the instinctive and unconscious reaction…”No. No that’s just NOT ME. I’ll have none of even considering something that foreign to my identity.”

Well, guess what?? 99.99999999….+.% of the Universe is “Not You” or anything you have ever experienced.

SO, there are far better reasons for rejecting false or evil or destructive or simply silly ideas than the ego-centered point of view. It’s work to try to avoid it, but it is very beneficial to avoid it…if any growth is to be desired. And the ego-centered (“I am the Measure of ALL”) mentality is the most common source of error in misjudging the positive contributions of other cultures, positive innovations…and valuable but as yet undiscovered ideas of others.

And that’s where I will go will go with Q…..and Crypto….two things that I already know, in 99% of cases, you will think, or even say, “That’s just NOT ME! Next! Something, anything else, please!”

Either could be good or bad in ultimate effect…..like Trump or many other people. But that criteria….”Just not ME”???

Worthless criteria.

And then you get the opposite extreme, the Bubbly Enthusiasts of Blind Belief……naively embracing anything and everything….

and Jordan today gives a really fun example of how silly some “Q-tards” are….(like most people, period!) ..and another example of something a bit more telling.

Thanks for referencing my posts, Bro. I was going to respond “in depth” but don’t want to overwhelm the thread with “too much Dimitar”. Briefly, I post here because I have great respect for the Saker’s mission as well as the Russian people who are closely related to Macedonians. Specifically, much of what I post is with the purpose of offering respite from the political process we’re all witness to today, and a glimpse into a more timeless world, consider it escape, inspiration, relief, whatever. Much of it is written responding to the images offered by Ioan’s, and occasionally the work of others. Whatever moves me in the moment. Cheers, and keep up the good work, D.

Previously on the Saker mention was made about chimpanzees and bonobos (pygmy chimpanzees), about how the 2 types of chimp were so different because they are separated by the mighty Congo river. Basically the chimpanzees are highly aggressive while the bonobos are very peaceful. The chimpanzees are also murderous and will eat meat, might even be cannibals, while the bonobos are probably all vegetarian and not murderous at all.

However the most pertinent difference between the 2 types of chimpanzees was shamefully neglected in that discussion, namely that of the differing sexual behaviors of the 2 types of chimp. With chimpanzees lots of the wild births occur as a result of rape / coercion, while the sex-crazed bonobos enjoy orgies, with adults doing it in front of the kiddies, communal sex if you will, all consensual. You could call bonobos the original lovey-dovey army. Bonobos are also the only primate apart from humans to practice fellatio.

With gorillas the harem phenomena is an established practice, though I don’t know about the coercive or consensual nature of matters there. What I do know is that its generally human females who like studying primates thanks to Jane Goodall who promoted the submissive approach towards getting close to primates in order to study them better. However this submissive approach slightly backfired with orangutans because some of the orangutan males decided that the submissive human females needed servicing of the coercive variety. Don’t know if the same thing happened with chimpanzees.

Anyway, Count Khazar the Bonobo always had interesting things to say, when he wasn’t distracted by below the belt issues that is.

Even Westerners (Canadian in Corbett’s case) in Japan are not enthusiastic about the Land of the Rising Sun being eclipsed by the Mainland of Asia.

But where the sun rises first, it also sets first. Japan may have some of the biggest demographic problems in the world. Too few young workers supporting too many old people who have one of the longest lifespans in the world.

In any case Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty everywhere including Russia, China, Japan, the USA, etc.

People should enjoy good leadership (like Xi’s and Putin’s) but not get complacent. Things have depended too much on a handful of individuals, and most of the best are only around for a very short time, historically speaking. A big and prosperous China so close by is something to pay close attention to

Besides that, Corbett’s world view and identity is distinctly Libertarian. He doesn’t really like ANY state…much less large ones such as China.

And what does that attitude solve, in the real world? Nothing.

I don’t think a state that has existed for millenia will be going away in the next few decades.

We share your apprehensions James. Now, what should we DO??

Like any Libertarian, he will punt on that question and recommend that you plant a garden in your back yard and grow your own vegetables, and subscribe to the Corbett Report. I did!.

Not that I oppose anyone planting anything legal in their back yard that wants to do that…… LOL.

Gegenfrage: What do you think the Empire has forgot to do between 1888 and 2018
„in order to keep Russia and Germany apart“? I don‘t know any such thing and can‘t imagine any such thing. Do you know one single germ politician who is *not* a prostitute of said empire (via one of its countless tentacles, bogus official or inofficial politicals orgs, „movements“ etc. etc.) The one „great führer”, „who resisted them bravely” was their dog and did nothing but „keep Russia and Germany apart” – obviously while opportunistically pretending the contrary for some minutes, and the system setup to „finish forever“ with his regime just continues it. In the GDR some of the old ones do remember what was and is necessary and was realized to some degree, but obviously not enuff. Thinking that „more susnshine would be beautiful“ when it rains is one thing, but daring to say „aua!“ when the boss whips you again is already a totally different thing, very dangerous, best to be avoided.

The germs are called „nemcy“ wherever their necessary partners dwell, analyze their chances, and solved this riddle long ago: these things do produce and sell nice toys, ok, but they will never be allies you can count on in any sense, and the proof is that the minimum is missing: future partners should think together and talk with one another – so, of what use can things be who rather bite their lips than ever speaking out when it would be necessary. They are limitless cowards, and thus useless for any real enterprise. Case closed.

Sana has this heading on breaking News – “Military source: Air defense system intercepts hostile missiles coming from the sea into Lattakia city, confronts a number of them before reaching their targets……”

The Idea of the New Silk Road and Eurasian Integration, for example, and by contrast is far, far more important to more human beings than such seemingly strange (to a majority of readers here, I would venture to say) topics. But this fact is widely understood by plenty of professional writers whose articles appear directly here or are linked by readers here. Not so these mostly disparaged side topics

However the trend, I sense, is for the impact and importance of these two seemingly unrelated (at first glance!) topics to rise, dramatically, at different rates in short days, weeks and years just a ahead of us. Good or bad as either may turn out in time, I hold that failing to understand either the promise or the danger of either…..with as much accuracy and discernment as possible …will be very, very worthwhile.

And frankly, while I think I can handle these “side-topics” conceptually ………coming more into “center view” I don’t think I can handle the speed (Red October, Baby…right around the corner!) at which the Q train is comin’, comin ’round the bend……”And I ain’t seen the sunshine, in I don’t know when!”

There are many others (Praying Medic, War Drummer, Lori Colley etc, etc) but for detail freaks Neon is hard to beat and provides DETAILED reasons to perk up, right now.

SO, whether you despise Trump or think there’s an outside chance he may be sincere about abandonement of Empire and cooperation with Russia and China and the Koreas …and even Iran ……but has been harassed to the degree that US foreign policy is not yet his foreign policy but still in the hands of the Cabal…I will go out on a limb to say this very poorly understood Q -Phenomenon. like the resurgence and re-emergence of gen Flynn is going to get more and more vital and interesting…at least through early November.

And I can give a short list of critical questions raised by Neon Revolt, more provocatively than any other source I am yet acquainted with. In a few hours or tomorrow.

A teaser for now:

True or Not True? Neon says THIS Thursday (short enough notice for you??) there will be a test of the emergency broadcast system in preparation for large parts of the internet and social media…TO GO DOWN….for some time.

What could that mean for this site possibly? Not a techie. I have no idea. I just know if someone makes forecasts THAT bold, they are very shortly going to look like a clairvoyant genius….or in time, be ignored like “The Boy Who Cried Wolf.”

Let’s start with the current article, and keep current while working back in time to especially one KEY recent trove of information: Israel, the Mossad, Jack Posobiec’s online duel with Neon….and (sigh) Alex Jones…as Mossad Fall Guy…..setting the template for how to take down the rest of the Alt-Media.

There’s nothing bold about a prediction of the emergency broadcast system. It’s in the news that all cellphone carriers are going to cooperate with FEMA to soon test an emergency “Presidential alert” from Trump. I think the new date is October 3rd, maybe. Your cellphone will make a loud squawk and then say “This is a bigly alert!!” Or whatever Trump decides. The real question is: what is this a test for? What are the circumstances under which Trump would legitimately need to send a “Presidential Alert” to everybody in CONUS?

‘At the request of a number of committees of Congress, and for reasons of transparency, the President has directed the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Department of Justice (including the FBI) to provide for the immediate declassification of the following materials: (1) pages 10-12 and 17-34 of the June 2017 application to the FISA court in the matter of Carter W. Page; (2) all FBI reports of interviews with Bruce G. Ohr prepared in connection with the Russia investigation; and (3) all FBI reports of interviews prepared in connection with all Carter Page FISA applications.

In addition, President Donald J. Trump has directed the Department of Justice (including the FBI) to publicly release all text messages relating to the Russia investigation, without redaction, of James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, and Bruce Ohr.’

OK, things are happening around Syria.
A Russian plane with 14 people disappeared off the radars. Sputnik is reporting missiles from a French Frigate in the Med. Syrian port city Latakia attracked by Israeli F-16 fighters.
Stuff is coming across the news tickers now, but things look confused.

Well every one I know is on their favorite twitter account or blog re: the shoot down of the Russian plane near Syria/Latakia. Why is RT so slow to jump on this? Corporate media would be screaming and shouting by now.

So a Russian Military Plane with 14 personnel on-board goes missing the same time Israel was launching strikes in Syria, and Syrian air defenses were firing en-mass in response, and a French Frigate reportedly launched a missile at the same time near the Syrian coast. #Problem

Lots of currently unanswered questions on disappearance of Russian IL20 plane with 14 personnel of the coast of #Syria, went off radar at the time of multiple Israeli strikes in Syria, SAA air defenses were active for a long time & French frigate also reportedly launched missiles

Russian MOD stating that a French frigate launched a missile near the Syrian coast about the same time a Russian IL20 plane with 14 personnel went off radar. Meanwhile U.S military officials suggest that Syrian air defenses possibly hit Russian plane during Israeli assault.

The only reason Russia is in Syria is to protect and enhance its own interests, they couldn’t care less about Syria or Syrians or the SAA they wouldn’t even give Syria slightly more sophisticated air defenses to protrct their country let alone care about Assads plans for Idleb.

update 3: In a breaking report CNN has cited Pentagon officials who say the missing Russian aircraft with 14 service members on board, now subject of a Russian search-and-rescue operation, was accidentally shot down by Syrian missile defense.

Pentagon sources say further that Israel was responsible for the nighttime attack, which reportedly involved strikes by air and possibly by sea from the Mediterranean. Israel has yet to issue comment.

But Russia says its radar picked up a French warship firing in the area just before the Russian patrol aircraft went down.

According to CNN:

A Russian maritime patrol aircraft with multiple personnel on board was inadvertently shot down by Syrian regime anti-aircraft artillery on Monday after the Syrians came under attack by Israeli missiles, according to a US official with knowledge of the incident

The US official said the regime was actually trying to stop a barrage of Israeli missiles. A second official confirmed that Israel was responsible for the missile strikes on the Syrian regime.

Greek investigative journalist Michalis Ignatiou revealed on Sunday the classified White House document of August 13, 1974, in which Henry Kissinger persuaded then-US President Gerald Ford that Turkey should be supported by the US in their two-wave invasion of Cyprus, seizing and occupying over a third of the island, deterring the Greek defence of Cyprus, and encouraging the Turks to ignore United Nations (UN) condemnation. According to Kissinger, “the Turkish tactics are right — grab what they want and then negotiate on the basis of possession. But if the Turks run loose on Cyprus, the Greeks could come unglued. We certainly do not want a war between the two, but if it came to that, Turkey is more important to us and they have a political structure which could produce a Qadhafi.”

This month the Kissinger scheme is being revived by the US, with support from Germany, France and the UK, to support Turkey in its seizure of the city and governorate of Idlib, in northwest Syria. Threats of US and NATO missile attacks have deterred the Syrian Army from attempting to reclaim its own territory. President Vladimir Putin has been pressured by the Turks, the US and NATO to delay Russian military support for the recovery of Idlib.

“There is no American reason why the Turks should not have one-third of Cyprus,” Kissinger told Ford in the Oval Office forty-four years ago. Substitute Idlib for Cyprus today, and there is no American reason why the Turks should not have Idlib, no matter what UN resolutions on Syrian sovereignty require and the Kremlin supports. Today, as Putin meets the Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Sochi, the question to be decided is whether the Kissinger scheme will prevail again.

A moment of levity. A Syrian comedian doing comedy in English. This man deserves to be widely distributed. He is not only funny, but is doing a yeoman’s job for his country. Apparently he has a big following on Facebook but I leave that Facebook stuff up to others. Here is his youtube channel:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn53Uv80mPlpJ5TMIqq2W5Q

and here is something to start with: (of course it is comedy so no complaints about language).

“That is nothing new for both parties. Since the inception of politics, it has always been for power and wealth. Funding is like skimming of the till feeding it into real estate to launder it. It is from corrupt thinking,… they are both one and the same. Billions of dollars! Like Trump, a billionaire who hides his financing by not releasing his tax returns. Fox news, Billionaires? Partners?”

Elijah Magnier returns to the show for an update and insight on the political situation in Iraq where the prime minister selection process (also a proxy battle of sorts between the US and Iran) is still ongoing. See Around the Empire Episode 56 for our first conversation on this topic. We also talk about the stalled operation in Idlib and the power players involved.

Data, waiter, make that a neat shot. It’s not who you know, its what you know, and what do I know, simply, I know that you know that I know something, but not a lot, about Q.

What I notice, first and primarily, is the presentation method and style, shorthand, racy, upbeat, funny – smile for the screen shot, punchy, some thriller edge bits, comic strip bits, intelligent analysis, bypassing of familiar news formats, big names on current world stage of political affairs, and finally, generating big influence in a powerful, happy world all of its own.
If Q fizzles out, it will resurface again in another guise and will get still bigger again.
It interests me, I try to write poems that express something hidden behind it, and what is hidden, it seems to me is propelling the projected charade along and is the gambit.

Whoa… it was an accident? Think again. A man walks into a bank to rob it and in the consequent action, one bank guard kills another guard as the robber sneaks out the back door where the other guard is stationed. That is not an “oops”–the robber is responsible for all deaths because he precipitated the situation in the first place. That is a simple legal fact which Putin is well aware of.

So, Mr. Putin…you are on the hot seat with this one. So much for allowing the Israelis to target “Iranians”—now everything they hit is Iranian or the Syrians helping Iranians.

So are you going let another Israeli jet get away with an attack on Syria?

Perhaps Mundanomaniac has astrological discernment relating to the big picture involved in this shooting down of a Russian transport plane by the Israelis/US-CIA. But here is how I see it. It is not over yet–not by a long shot.

Next week ( Western astrology) there is an Aries (war) full moon at 1 degree conjunct the world point of 0 degree of Aries. Libra sun opposed, of course. Saturn is square ( both) this is a difficult position in any astrological system whether we disagree on the “world point” or not.

Today 9/18/18 is 9-9-9 added together is another 9. Plus Mars is exactly square Uranus in any system although the Vedic system does not recognize Uranus since it was recently discovered. Time to update, folks.

What is might mean is sudden, unexpected evens of an electrical, warlike, harsh nature or even a sudden earthquake, volcanic eruption or air war since Mars is in an air sign ruled by Saturn ( karma, harsh lessons, difficulty, delay, hard decisions.

Will Syria become the new Yemen? I think not. This situation has not yet resolved–9—and is charging itself with potential energy for a resolution. Pray for the planet.

But, as you know, I do not astrology to deal with the demons and their daily poison but to point at the chances for those ‘acting with the gods’.

As to the full Moon: in my view, Moon doesn’t ‘act’ on the collective level in our psyche, but on the private one.

In my readings of the chances to mend demonic troubles by mastered squares, my point is more on the invisible wealth of unconscious resonances in the souls of us, which could as time goes by, become conscious and healthy, then on the visible catastrophies.

Thank you Mundano. Your words are much appreciated. “Neptune and Jupiter–the panorama of the solution.” Still they have to hop-skip through Saturn, the taskmaster, and the Pass-Me-Not veil. Play, perchance, is the way?

I post this for you a bit too soon but because I did promised, her it is :

Circle
by ioan

Days becoming shorter
Nights becoming longer
Slowly, cooling down
Day by day, in town
Orion comes soon,
Moving on horizon
Greeting Venus, Mars and Moon
On the next, cool season
Soon, they’ll have with winter flirt
On the northern hemisphere of Earth
Down, in Aussie’s sunny land
Children play at sea with sand
Building castles, making bath
While the sun is warm and fat
So the world is nice and round
Always changing, wind and air,
Everything is to be found
In the circle of a year.
Mundo knows the stars much better
You can read it in his letter
When you jump in, in his blog
As I did it, with my dog.
Old friend, old friend, love with you
Thanks for everything you do !
Grüß euch beide, mit viel Liebe
Sehen uns bald und dann schon wieder!

Can Russia Survive Her “Partnerships”?
Has Putin Made A Strategic Miscalculation?

Paul Craig Roberts

In an act of intentional deception, Israel used a Russian airplane to cloak an Israeli attack on a Syrian ground position, with the consequence that Syrian air defense missiles downed the Russian airplane with the lost of 15 Russian military lives.

For a few minutes it looked like Israel was finally to be held accountable for its reckless and irresponsible actions, but it was not to be. Russian President Putin contradicted his Defense Minister by declaring the loss of Russian lives to be “accidental,” a result of a “chain of tragic circumstances.”

One wonders how Israel does it. President Putin covered up for Israel’s destruction of the Russian IL-20 just as President Johnson covered up for Israel’s murderous attack on the USS Liberty that resulted in 208 US Navy casualties. https://www.rt.com/news/438728-putin-israel-syria-plane/ As Israel gets away with everything, including routine massacres of unarmed Palestinian women and children, there is no reason to expect Israel to change its behavior.
…..

In my opinion, Russia’s inability to stand firm in the face of Western and Israeli aggression will be the principal cause of World War Three in which we will all die and the planet as well.

Perhaps Mr. Roberts would like to read the excellent article by Tony Cartalucci on the New Eastern Outlook.
[ https://www.journal-neo.org ]

His cool, balanced and very informative outlook makes a change, like a fresh wind on a stuffy hot day. After a day of reading over and over variations on the refrain of “yeah mate, kick’im innaballs” his pointing out the major issue of overuse of the defence system in response to deliberate provocations aimed at exactly that is of considerable interest.
Also, I have to take issue with Mr. Roberts statement that President Putin “contradicted his Defence Minister”. V.V. said that he fully supported the statement made by the DoD, and has not resiled from that.
Once can only assume that Mr. Putin is playing a double hand. He is allowing his Ministers to make the accusatory, angry comments while he at the same time continues as the balanced, calm, detached and diplomatic President. So – he gets two hits in for the price of one.
Which is very nice.
I do recommend reading the Cartalucci article – he makes some excellent points.

Sorry about that Kent. It didn’t occur to me the Silencers would hide NEO details. However, given the severe attack they came under a few months back, which had them off line for a while, I should have guessed.

Some good articles there with much approved writers – worth keeping the URL handy for a regular check of the site I think.

I have tried to get Cartalucci’s and another article that posits an Aster missile coming from the French frigate downing the IL-20 on the “Russia blames Israel…’ thread but any hope for quiet discussion is drowned out by vengeance emotion.

One of the most damning items that apparently can’t be discussed is the IFF (Identification friend or foe) on board the IL-20 which would prevent any lock by the supposed Syrian S-200 missile -and making it impossible that this was the cause. The immediate alternatives then are the Aster missiles on the French frigate or a heavy (not light) missile on one of the Israel F-16s or from the Brit aircraft in the area.

This now makes me somewhat hot under the collar. How on earth can he start blaming Russia for a potential WWIII. How can he make that Russia’s responsibility? Russia has been keeping us out of a potential WWIII so far against tremendous odds. None of us like Putin’s mild response after the Israeli attack. But PCR must put responsibility where responsibility belongs. Why should Russia save the world from its own woes?

„No one does something for free“
… must be wrong, since some or even many people do – for the most diverse reasons – like feeling good, seeking friends, hopes for unsollicited rewards afterwards like gratefulness… which are then the gratification which proves that, yes, in a broad sense „No one does something for free“. We all know that mothers feed their children for not going to jail as child molestors… But explaining everything namely with cash seems too primitive.

Yes, even Poles have blind spots in their otherwise splendid brains, and it is there that fathers and mothers of morgana may appear. Thus the present conservative gov’t wants by all means to prove that VVP himself shot down PL101 in Smolensk as jubilee present to Angelika H. thus celebrating her 10th jubilee in office as party führer of the CDU. Now, IF Trump does indeed send a tank army into Fort Trump – with a church devoted to Swie,ta Melania – and IF VVP foolishly attacks them, and IF the Russkies are obviously smashed by the much better american tanks from Fort Trump, and IF then the Polish army reaches Moscow (a bit late, according to the world historic dates rhyme calendar this was due in 2012 already, and next time only in 2212) – emptied as in 1812 – and IF then they reach the private rooms of VVP, THEN they will definitely find his secret diary, and in it the chapter: „How I shot down PL101“ which will then be the final proof for what J. Kaczynski always knew! The only little problem might be that Trump might need his tanks somewhere else…

” Players and painted stage took all my love
And not those things that they were emblems of.

III
Those masterful images, because complete
Grew in pure mind, but out of what began?
A mound of refuse, of the sweepings of a street,
Old kettles, old bottles, and a broken can,
Old iron, old bones, old rags, that raving slut
Who keeps the till. Now that my ladder’s gone
I must lie down where all the ladders start
In the foul rag-and-bone shop of the heart.”

PCR the Drama Queen sits in the crowd near the strategic gaming table shreiking, “All in! All in!”

But the table isn’t flat, it’s round….and you’ve got to play all of it, including that which cannot be seen by any radars off any Mediterranean coasts:

“President Trump’s decisive action (to declassify FISA) comes as the new paradigm continues to unfold, presenting the alternative to war and financial crisis. The leaders of South and North Korea are meeting for three days in Pyongyang, where President Moon Jae-in and Chairman Kim Jong-un rode into town from the airport in an open-roof car, greeted by cheering crowds along the way in national dress, waving “unification” flags — flags with a map of the united Korea, as they used at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Seoul. Many of South Korea’s leading businessmen joined the delegation, to convey the kind of cooperation in nation-building which can be unleashed once the process of establishing peaceful relations is completed.”

Those who shot down the Russian plane are acting for themselves in the short term but also substantially on behalf of others even more desperate than themselves in the medium to long term..that they absolutely depend upon: The Deep State USA and the Zio-Lobby here.

Others, many of whose leading members, with the FISA declassification ordered Monday…can be dragged away from the Global Strategy Game Table in handcuffs..and either locked up…or shot.

When time is on your side, let others take wild risks designed to keep from losing EVERYTHING..

Such a mist
Such a fog
A weary way forwards
Silver drops tipping
The edge of leaves
Looking for signs every day
Wending along the cafe way
Listening out for any sign
Silver drops are falling now
I wait in a hush of silence
Hoping only for the words
About A Great Awakening.
Over Cafe de la Comedie
But a Greater Sleepening
Drifting in the air
White smoke
Like a mist
In a valley
Of quiet
